Item Description
This is a classic and aesthetic Clay Center specimen with the well-placed intergrown fluorite cubes exhibiting a rich cognac color in the interior with near colorless edge phantoms and outstanding luster and gemminess. This piece is from the major finds a few years ago. It has fine display quality from multiple angles. A trivial bit of edge wear is barely noticeable. For added flavor the spray and discrete lustrous and colorless celestine blades dramatize the fluorite. An excellent example for the size. This is also highly fluorescent a ghostly white color under UV light.
